    Of the 12 high school players rated as five-star recruits by ESPN, Florida has signed four. The Gators signed 11 of the top 50 players according to ESPN. Overall, the Gators signed 17 players from the ESPNU 150 list of players.
    Florida signed both teams’ MVPs from the 2010 Under Armour All-America Football Game: DE Dominique Easley was the MVP for the black team and LB Michael Taylor was the MVP for the white team. The Gators also signed DE Ronald Powell, the MVP from the 2010 U.S. Army All-America Bowl.

    Thats a pretty scary recruiting class.

    Unbelievable class. If they develop and turn out to be everything they're advertised to be, this might be the best recruiting class ever.

    Ridiculous class..need to get their QB though

    They do, his name's Brantley.

    Brantley could be really good this coming year.

    I watched a few minutes of the ESPNU recruiting special earlier and the experts mentioned that Meyer was telling recruits that he was going to go away from the option style offense and use more of a pro-style attack. Herbstreit didn't really buy what Meyer was selling, but isn't Brantley more of a pro-style QB? Should be interesting to see what happens.

    QB is thin, we have Brantley and if he gets hurt, its trouble. The current backup is moving to TE, Jordan Reed. We like Burton, a 3 year starter in hs, and he is a leader. He recruited this class as much as the coaches, Burton was the first commit. Murphy from Conn. is someone who Addazzio knew, went to school with his dad or hs coach or something like that. When they decided to move Reed to TE they starting looking for another QB. Murphy could change positions next year. Meyer also has 2 QB's for 2011 already picked out. Lemay is one, his dad used to be the Gators team chaplain before they moved away.
